TL;DR
August in Seychelles is generally warm, with rain often limited to short showers at night or in the morning. Travelers report that daytime sunshine is still common enough for beach trips.
During a 16-day August stay, heavy rain lasted only a few hours on one day while travelling from La Digue to Mahé. The remaining days were dry, apart from light daytime rain on one or two days and brief rain on a couple of nights.
During a late-August one-week stay, about 5.5 days were sunny with no clouds or rain. The final two days alternated between sunshine and brief showers.
In late August, the weather was described as excellent, with just one morning shower during the stay and warm temperatures throughout.
In early August, light rain could occur almost every night and occasionally in the morning. Daytime was mostly dry, leaving time for beaches and sightseeing.
August weather can be changeable: even during a relatively drier period, clouds and rain are possible. Keep beach plans flexible and have a rainy-day alternative.
